Question on the bare hull. On a deck boat are your feet resting on the bottom or are you elevated a foot or more? Ive been reading about shanty boats a little bit lately.
You are actually standing on the deck and their is a shallow bilge space below. I ordered 10' sheets of ply and replaced deck after cleaning fuel tank replacing the hoses, fuel sender, bilge pumps, added blower etc. Here's interior pic. starboard side
